Nobody open that spoiler!

They're practically indestructible, but once they take enough damage they stop their entity from doing anything be being armor/cannon fodder. That way you can still "knock off" turrets.

Really! The best I can do is a 5 by 5 by 3. I remember seeing one that was 1 by 2 by 3 somehow. How do they get such low heights?

The fact that they're that weak makes me want to point them out on my ship just so people miss more shots trying to aim there. Warheads suck D: I assume this means that you have stupid amounts of thrusters, or are running a ton of extra effects. If you're worried about turrets you can carve...

If not allow straight control over gravity. It just seems really weird to have really high ceilings and still hit your head every jump. why in minecraft a 2 high house never feels right. If it could be turned down to 2 or 3 then I would feel a lot more natural and less claustrophobic in ship...

Because Use for either armor pen or as anti shield. Would it work, is it good, or is it terrible?

It's a cost thing. Even if AI could totally use JDs, the JD system costs a ton and uses a lot of power. There's a reason tie fighters are so spammy, the're shieldless jumpless, and don't even have a reactor(they use solar panels and batteries(?) instead). X-wings were a lot more valuable for...

First of all, it took me a good few weeks before I made a ship large enough to blow holes in Adv armor. And that was over the summer. That makes up a good part of the "stick or leave" era of a player's relationship with a game. And I went straight for big ships. I can't tell you how much less...

Or anything that isn't in the blocks/tick range. You're kinda dising the whole <Frigate ship league.

it might never get in range, but it'd be so worth it.

You also need to add, like your 3 by 3 output main array, 3 by 3 PD guns. So if it's a little inaccurate then the sourounding shots might hit. Make em logic clock based too. hmmmmmm.....

That's not how it works in real life either, but I get your point.

I agree with both of them, especially in the second picture it really warps my mind how the ship looks, you really need to add some pipes and stuff to add perspective and shape to things. The drones you show are really inefficient space wise, your pickup rails should be on the runway and then...

Something else to look for is a tilted system so you have asteroid belts that go in the very corners, some types of asteroids only spawn so far out from the sun in a system. For starting a new HB I would recommend buying 2-5 of every factory, a good 100 reactors, 64(for a 4by4by4 cube)...

Can you orbit with a ship right now? Shear of all the plates except a pole of cargo blocks, and head off with ~20 m/s?

Why not Pulse-pulse-ion, and add ion to your main weapons? Or did he literally one shot your shields? If so he still could get away with some smaller ones of ppi instead of one large pi.

Seems a lot like Block Driven Ship/Turret AI But it's okay. I want to merge the Ideas. Programming is ship design and should be treated as such. It's no more competitive than your power systems and armor placement.

I still have to figure out what "if(isMissile);((action)target);missile means, that or it just becomes static. First of all, of course you are. You can't take an Arduino, plug a light sensor into it, and tell it to find moisture levels. It would only recognize variables and inputs it could...

Do more asteroids spawn, or is it the same amount just emptier? And is there a limit?

Can we also add number variables for things like distance and such? So you can say "stay 400 meters away from target" and such for much more potential. Say 100 meters per activator? Ima make a program for fun! "Strafe" program The ship has a high cap, lower regen standpoint on both shields...
